Title: Reasons Why Xie Na Missed Attending Chen Qiao En's Wedding: Insufficient Passport Validity and Typhoon Disruption
Mumbai: The iconic Azad Maidan in south Mumbai known for political rallies right from the independence movement, protests meetings and later for sports pitches, will mark another historic event on Thursday, December 5 when the next Maharashtra chief minister will take his oath. The event will be attended by PM Narendra Modi, chief ministers of around 16 states and several top BJP-led NDA leaders. This will be the second swearing-in ceremony at the historic Azad Maidan after late Vilasrao Deshmukh was sworn in as the CM in November 2004 in the then Congress-NCP government. However, Azad (Independence) Maidan which holds India’s rich history, located a stone-throw away from iconic buildings including BMC headquarters, CSMT and Killa Court among others, has lost its charm over the years. The approximately 1,45,041 sq mt big ground (including the Bombay Gymkhana area) has now in practicality divided into parts, with a major portion going for Metro 3 construction work. The ground, which earlier had 22 plots has produced cricketers starting from Sachin Tendulkar and Vinod Kambli to Shardul Thakur and Yashasvi Jaiswal, and now has a mere seven plots functional. While a small section is reserved for the public to hold protest meetings and another for vehicular parking. Of the approximately 1,45,041 sq mt total ground, approximately 2,858 sq mt is presently used for MMRCL's underground Metro 3 construction work, and the remaining area is for public use, including protest meetings and sports activities. The December 5 swearing-in ceremony will take place on 5,6,020 sq mt land of the Azad Maidan, which is presently used for sports activities. The area can accommodate 35,000 people. Owing to scheduled matches at the Wankhede stadium and preparations for Mahaparinirman Divas (December 6) in Shivaji Park ground the swearing-in being held at Azad Maidan. BJP leaders Pravin Darekar and Mohit Kamboj who visited the Azad Maidan on Tuesday to review the swearing-in ceremony preparations said, “Around 40,000 people will attend the ceremony. The event is open to the public. Big screens will be installed outside the ground so people can watch the swearing-in ceremony. “It will be the CM and two Dy CMs taking the oath. We will set up 43 chairs and we hope 43 ministers take oath to form the new government,” Kamboj said maintaining the suspense of new CM's face and division of ministry within the Mahayuti.

Vandal smashes Ebenezer Scrooge's tombstone used in 'A Christmas Carol' movie LONDON (AP) — If life imitates art, a vandal in the English countryside may be haunted by The Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come. Police in the town of Shrewsbury are investigating how a tombstone at the fictional grave of Ebenezer Scrooge was destroyed. The movie prop used in the 1984 adaption of Charles Dickens' “A Christmas Carol” had become a tourist attraction. The film starred George C. Scott as the cold-hearted curmudgeon who is visited by three ghosts on Christmas Eve who show him what will become of his life if he doesn’t become a better person. West Mercia Police say the stone was vandalized in the past week. Megachurch founder T.D. Jakes suffers health incident during sermon at Dallas church DALLAS (AP) — The founder of Dallas-based megachurch The Potter's House, Bishop T.D. Jakes, was hospitalized after suffering what the church called a “slight health incident.” Jakes was speaking to churchgoers after he sat down and began trembling as several people gathered around him Sunday at the church. Jakes' daughter Sarah Jakes Roberts and her husband Touré Roberts said in a statement on social media late Sunday that Jakes was improving. The 67-year-old Jakes founded the non-denominational The Potter's House in 1996 and his website says it now has more than 30,000 members with campuses in Fort Worth and Frisco, Texas; and in Denver. At the crossroads of news and opinion, 'Morning Joe' hosts grapple with aftermath of Trump meeting The reaction of those who defended “Morning Joe” hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski for meeting with President-elect Trump sounds almost quaint in the days of opinionated journalism. Doesn't it makes sense, they said, for hosts of a political news show to meet with such an important figure? But given how “Morning Joe” has attacked Trump, its viewers felt insulted. Many reacted quickly by staying away. It all reflects the broader trend of opinion crowding out traditional journalist in today's marketplace, and the expectations that creates among consumers. By mid-week, the show's audience was less than two-thirds what it has typically been this year. Pilot dies in plane crash in remote woods of New York, puppy found alive WINDHAM, N.Y.

A desert oasis outside of Dubai draws a new caravan: A family of rodents from Argentina AL QUDRA LAKES, United Arab Emirates (AP) — A desert oasis hidden away in the dunes in the far reaches of skyscraper-studded Dubai has drawn a surprising new set of weary world travelers: a pack of Argentinian rodents. A number of Patagonian mara, a rabbit-like mammal with long legs, big ears and a body like a hoofed animal, now roam the grounds of Al Qudra Lakes, typically home to gazelle and other desert creatures of the United Arab Emirates. How they got there remains a mystery in the UAE, a country where exotic animals have ended up in the private homes and farms of the wealthy. But the pack appears to be thriving there and likely have survived several years already in a network of warrens among the dunes.The ball is now in the Lakers' court to reassess their approach and ensure that future negotiations with coaching candidates are conducted with the utmost respect and fairness.

Flux Power Announces Planned Retirement of Chairman & Chief Executive Officer Ron DuttDefence lawyers for an Ottawa graphic designer facing terror charges over his alleged involvement with the neo-Nazi group Atomwaffen Division argued the evidence against their client is flimsy. Closing arguments wrapped up Tuesday in the trial of Patrick Gordon Macdonald, 27, who pleaded not guilty to three terrorism and hate speech charges. Crown prosecutors allege he helped make three recruitment videos for the listed terrorist entity, as well as a slew of other hate propaganda. But his defence team argued the Crown can't prove beyond a reasonable doubt that he was involved in the production of the videos, and they suggested the case hinges on that. "This is a house of cards that's built on a very shaky foundation," said defence lawyer Ariya Sheivari. The series of propaganda videos in question espouse violent and antisemitic messages and symbols, and show a small, paramilitary-like force shooting rifles and burning flags and books, including the Pride flag and the Israeli flag. Crown prosecutors have argued throughout the proceedings that camera equipment seized from Macdonald's home in 2022 can tie him to the creation of the videos through metadata analysis, along with other records and objects police obtained. Police had seized multiple cameras and lenses, which prosecutors said contain identifiable traits, such as serial numbers and file naming conventions. One camera had an identifiable offset date of 391 days and 15 hours, meaning the date stamp on files would be more than a year off. The defence argued the metadata evidence the Crown has assembled is circumstantial, and does not link Macdonald to creating the videos. Sheivari told the court the identifying data for one of the cameras is linked to JPEG image files embedded in one of the three video files the RCMP had downloaded from the internet. He said it's not clear what images are contained in those JPEGs and argued they alone are not proof that the videos were recorded with Macdonald's camera. Sheivari called this a key "building block of the Crown's case" linking his client to the videos. Defence lawyer Douglas Baum also challenged previous expert witness testimony that branded Atomwaffen a terrorist group, suggesting the research report compiled on the group for the court was sloppy and limited to secondary sources. He noted the Atomwaffen Division was not designated a terrorist group by Public Safety Canada until 2021, after Macdonald was alleged to have participated in the group's activities. He suggested the Crown needs to independently establish that it is a terror group for the charges to stick. Prosecutors also got some final words in on Tuesday, pointing to some neo-Nazi inspired imagery posted to the Tumblr account of "Dark Foreigner," an active social media poster they identified as Macdonald. That included one image with text that reads, "Accept death, embrace infamy." "The small drizzle becomes a bigger pond, is the danger here," said Crown prosecutor Catherine Legault, warning such graphics were made to recruit more members for the group and its far-right ideology. None of the allegations have been proven in court. A scheduling hearing is set for early February.

KYIV, Ukraine — NATO and Ukraine will hold emergency talks Tuesday after Russia attacked a central city with an experimental, hypersonic ballistic missile. escalating the nearly 33-month-old war. The conflict is “entering a decisive phase,” Poland’s Prime Minister Donald Tusk said Friday, and “taking on very dramatic dimensions.” Ukraine’s parliament canceled a session as security was tightened following Thursday’s Russian strike on a military facility in the city of Dnipro. In a stark warning to the West, President Vladimir Putin said in a nationally televised speech the attack with the intermediate-range Oreshnik missile was in retaliation for Kyiv’s use of U.S. and British longer-range missiles capable of striking deeper into Russian territory. Russian President Vladimir Putin speaks Friday during a meeting with the leadership of the Russian Ministry of Defense, representatives of the military-industrial complex and developers of missile systems at the Kremlin in Moscow. Putin said Western air defense systems would be powerless to stop the new missile. People are also reading... Ukrainian military officials said the missile that hit Dnipro reached a speed of Mach 11 and carried six nonnuclear warheads, each releasing six submunitions. Speaking Friday to military and weapons industries officials, Putin said Russia will launch production of the Oreshnik. “No one in the world has such weapons,” he said. “Sooner or later, other leading countries will also get them. We are aware that they are under development. “We have this system now,” he added. “And this is important.” Putin said that while it isn’t an intercontinental missile, it’s so powerful that the use of several of them fitted with conventional warheads in one attack could be as devastating as a strike with strategic — or nuclear — weapons. Gen. Sergei Karakayev, head of Russia’s Strategic Missile Forces, said the Oreshnik could reach targets across Europe and be fitted with nuclear or conventional warheads, echoing Putin’s claim that even with conventional warheads, “the massive use of the weapon would be comparable in effect to the use of nuclear weapons.” In this photo taken from a video released Friday, a Russian serviceman operates at an undisclosed location in Ukraine. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov kept up Russia's bellicose tone on Friday, blaming “the reckless decisions and actions of Western countries” in supplying weapons to Ukraine to strike Russia. "The Russian side has clearly demonstrated its capabilities, and the contours of further retaliatory actions in the event that our concerns were not taken into account have also been quite clearly outlined," he said. Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, widely seen as having the warmest relations with the Kremlin in the European Union, echoed Moscow’s talking points, suggesting the use of U.S.-supplied weapons in Ukraine likely requires direct American involvement. “These are rockets that are fired and then guided to a target via an electronic system, which requires the world’s most advanced technology and satellite communications capability,” Orbán said on state radio. “There is a strong assumption ... that these missiles cannot be guided without the assistance of American personnel.” Orbán cautioned against underestimating Russia’s responses, emphasizing that the country’s recent modifications to its nuclear deployment doctrine should not be dismissed as a “bluff.” “It’s not a trick ... there will be consequences,” he said. Czech Republic's Foreign Minister Jan Lipavsky speaks to journalists Friday during a joint news conference with Ukraine's Foreign Minister Andriiy Sybiha in Kyiv, Ukraine. Separately in Kyiv, Czech Foreign Minister Jan Lipavský called Thursday’s missile strike an “escalatory step and an attempt of the Russian dictator to scare the population of Ukraine and to scare the population of Europe.” At a news conference with Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha, Lipavský also expressed his full support for delivering the necessary additional air defense systems to protect Ukrainian civilians from the “heinous attacks.” He said the Czech Republic will impose no limits on the use of its weapons and equipment given to Ukraine. Three lawmakers from Ukraine's parliament, the Verkhovna Rada, confirmed that Friday's previously scheduled session was called off due to the ongoing threat of Russian missiles targeting government buildings in central Kyiv. In addition, there also was a recommendation to limit the work of all commercial offices and nongovernmental organizations "in that perimeter, and local residents were warned of the increased threat,” said lawmaker Mykyta Poturaiev, who said it's not the first time such a threat has been received. Ukraine’s Main Intelligence Directorate said the Oreshnik missile was fired from the Kapustin Yar 4th Missile Test Range in Russia’s Astrakhan region and flew 15 minutes before striking Dnipro. Test launches of a similar missile were conducted in October 2023 and June 2024, the directorate said. The Pentagon confirmed the missile was a new, experimental type of intermediate-range missile based on its RS-26 Rubezh intercontinental ballistic missile. Thursday's attack struck the Pivdenmash plant that built ICBMs when Ukraine was part of the Soviet Union. The military facility is located about 4 miles southwest of the center of Dnipro, a city of about 1 million that is Ukraine’s fourth-largest and a key hub for military supplies and humanitarian aid, and is home to one of the country’s largest hospitals for treating wounded soldiers from the front before their transfer to Kyiv or abroad. From tuberculosis to heart disease: How the leading causes of death in America have changed From tuberculosis to heart disease: How the leading causes of death in America have changed We're all going to die someday. Still, how it happens—and when—can point to a historical moment defined by the scientific advancements and public health programs available at the time to contain disease and prevent accidents. In the early 1900s, America's efforts to improve sanitation, hygiene, and routine vaccinations were still in their infancy. Maternal and infant mortality rates were high, as were contagious diseases that spread between people and animals. Combined with the devastation of two World Wars—and the Spanish Flu pandemic in between—the leading causes of death changed significantly after this period. So, too, did the way we diagnose and control the spread of disease. Starting with reforms as part of Roosevelt's New Deal in the 1930s, massive-scale, federal interventions in the U.S. eventually helped stave off disease transmission. It took comprehensive government programs and the establishment of state and local health agencies to educate the public on preventing disease transmission. Seemingly simple behavioral shifts, such as handwashing, were critical in thwarting the spread of germs, much like discoveries in medicine, such as vaccines, and increased access to deliver them across geographies. Over the course of the 20th century, life expectancy increased by 56% and is estimated to keep increasing slightly, according to an annual summary of vital statistics published by the American Academy of Pediatrics in 2000. Death Records examined data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to see how the leading causes of death in America have evolved over time and to pinpoint how some major mortality trends have dropped off. Infectious diseases lead causes of death in America According to a report published in the journal Annual Review of Public Health in 2000, pneumonia was the leading cause of death in the early 1900s, accounting for nearly 1 in 4 deaths. By the time World War I ended in 1918, during which people and animals were housed together for long periods, a new virus emerged: the Spanish Flu. Originating in a bird before spreading to humans, the virus killed 10 times as many Americans as the war. Many died of secondary pneumonia after the initial infection. Pneumonia deaths eventually plummeted throughout the century, partly prevented by increased flu vaccine uptake rates in high-risk groups, particularly older people. Per the CDC, tuberculosis was a close second leading cause of death, killing 194 of every 10,000 people in 1900, mainly concentrated in dense urban areas where the infection could more easily spread. Eventually, public health interventions led to drastic declines in mortality from the disease, such as public education, reducing crowded housing, quarantining people with active disease, improving hygiene, and using antibiotics. Once the death rates lagged, so did the public health infrastructure built to control the disease, leading to a resurgence in the mid-1980s. Diarrhea was the third leading cause of death in 1900, surging every summer among children before the impacts of the pathogen died out in 1930. Adopting water filtration, better nutrition, and improved refrigeration were all associated with its decline. In the 1940s and 1950s, polio outbreaks killed or paralyzed upward of half a million people worldwide every year. Even at its peak, polio wasn't a leading cause of death, it was a much-feared one, particularly among parents of young children, some of whom kept them from crowded public places and interacting with other children. By 1955, when Jonah Salk discovered the polio vaccine, the U.S. had ended the "golden age of medicine." During this period, the causes of mortality shifted dramatically as scientists worldwide began to collaborate on infectious disease control, surgical techniques, vaccines, and other drugs. Leading causes of death tip toward lifestyle-related disease From the 1950s onward, once quick-spreading deadly contagions weren't prematurely killing American residents en masse, scientists also began to understand better how to diagnose and treat these diseases. As a result, Americans were living longer lives and instead succumbing to noncommunicable diseases, or NCDs. The risk of chronic diseases increased with age and, in some cases, was exacerbated by unhealthy lifestyles. Cancer and heart disease shot up across the century, increasing 90-fold from 1900 to 1998, according to CDC data. Following the post-Spanish Flu years, heart disease killed more Americans than any other cause, peaking in the 1960s and contributing to 1 in 3 deaths. Cigarette smoking rates peaked at the same time, a major risk factor for heart disease. Obesity rates also rose, creating another risk factor for heart disease and many types of cancers. This coincides with the introduction of ultra-processed foods into diets, which plays a more significant role in larger waistlines than the increasing predominance of sedentary work and lifestyles. In the early 1970s, deaths from heart disease began to fall as more Americans prevented and managed their risk factors, like quitting smoking or taking blood pressure medicine. However, the disease remains the biggest killer of Americans. Cancer remains the second leading cause of death and rates still indicate an upward trajectory over time. Only a few types of cancer are detected early by screening, and some treatments for aggressive cancers like glioblastoma—the most common type of brain cancer—have also stalled, unable to improve prognosis much over time. In recent years, early-onset cancers, those diagnosed before age 50 or sometimes even earlier, have seen a drastic rise among younger Americans. While highly processed foods and sedentary lifestyles may contribute to rising rates, a spike in cancer rates among otherwise healthy young individuals has baffled some medical professionals. This follows the COVID-19 pandemic that began in 2020. At its peak, high transmission rates made the virus the third leading cause of death in America. It's often compared to the Spanish Flu of 1918, though COVID-19 had a far larger global impact, spurring international collaborations among scientists who developed a vaccine in an unprecedented time. Public policy around issues of safety and access also influences causes of death, particularly—and tragically—among young Americans. Gun control measures in the U.S. are far less stringent than in peer nations; compared to other nations, however, the U.S. leads in gun violence. Firearms are the leading cause of death for children and teens (around 2 in 3 are homicides, and 1 in 3 are suicides), and deaths from opioids remain a leading cause of death among younger people. Globally, the leading causes of death mirror differences in social and geographic factors. NCDs are primarily associated with socio-economic status and comprise 7 out of 10 leading causes of death, 85% of those occurring in low- and middle-income countries, according to the World Health Organization. However, one of the best health measures is life expectancy at birth. People in the U.S. have been living longer lives since 2000, except for a slight dip in longevity due to COVID-19. According to the most recent CDC estimates, Americans' life expectancy is 77.5 years on average and is expected to increase slightly in the coming decades. Story editing by Alizah Salario.

Partnering with Supermicro and Dell, the company seeks to ensure compliance with U.S. export restrictions amidst rising concerns. Background Checks Intensified Nvidia’s strategy involves rallying its partners, typically not its direct sales outlets, to perform random spot checks on their Southeast Asian clients. These inspections aim to confirm ownership and prevent illegal re-exportation of Nvidia’s technology. An insider linked to the U.S. Commerce Department suggests these actions were prompted by suspicions that the chips were reaching China illicitly. Clever Tactics in Play The smuggling methods reportedly include altering server identifiers, making it challenging for original manufacturers to detect. Despite these sophisticated techniques, firms like Supermicro are vigilant. They’ve reiterated their commitment to strictly following export regulations. If any discrepancies are found, they promptly launch investigations and propose necessary measures. Consequences and Measures Both Nvidia and its partners emphasize a zero-tolerance stance on non-compliance. Breaching these regulations not only harms Nvidia but also attracts severe repercussions for the parties involved, including potential termination of business relations. The U.S. continues to impose stringent rules on high-tech exports, particularly on high-bandwidth memory and chip-making tools, as President Biden enforces tighter regulations. Global Impact and Workarounds Despite these efforts, reports suggest Chinese AI engineers are still tapping into Nvidia’s technology by collaborating with brokers or renting server time from other major tech giants, circumventing direct import restrictions. As measures tighten, the innovation landscape feels the pressure, urging stakeholders to continually adapt. Nvidia’s Secret War: The High-Stakes Game of AI Chip Compliance Introduction In the high-tech world of artificial intelligence, Nvidia finds itself at the heart of a geopolitical challenge, aiming to curb the unauthorized flow of its advanced AI chips into China. As regulations tighten, Nvidia spearheads innovative strategies and fortifies alliances with industry partners to reinforce compliance with U.S. export restrictions. Innovative Compliance Measures In the wake of heightened scrutiny, Nvidia has initiated groundbreaking measures to ensure its technologies remain within legal boundaries. The company’s collaboration with partners like Supermicro and Dell focuses on implementing random spot checks on clients in Southeast Asia. This novel approach acts as a double-layered security measure to authenticate the legitimacy of end-users and owners, preventing unauthorized re-exportation into China’s sophisticated tech landscape. Clever Countermeasures and Red Flags The tactics employed in the unauthorized transportation of AI chips pose technical and ethical challenges. Techniques such as altering server identifiers make it quite arduous for manufacturers to trace their origin. However, firms like Supermicro have been proactive in identifying and addressing such discrepancies, continuously adapting to the ever-evolving compliance landscape. Controversies and Compliance Challenges The need for stringent compliance measures brings with it significant controversy. While ensuring compliance protects intellectual property and technology transfers, these actions ignite debates over market access and the balance of global tech ecosystems. The ongoing geopolitical tension further complicates matters, as stakeholders must navigate these intricate challenges. Market Insights and Predictions As Nvidia fortifies its position, industry experts anticipate shifts in market dynamics. The demand for AI technology in China remains robust, pushing firms to reconsider global supply strategies amidst restrictive export controls. Emerging trends suggest that Nvidia’s stringent compliance efforts may spur innovation in local Chinese AI industries, accelerating domestic chip development as alternatives to restricted imports. Sustainability and Future-Safe Strategies Sustainability in technology exports is gaining traction as an integral aspect of Nvidia’s business strategy. The company’s actions forecast an era where legal compliance and ethical business practices become synonymous with competitive advantage and market trust. Nvidia’s steadfast commitment to these principles not only upholds its technological leadership but also sets a precedent for future tech innovations. Conclusion Nvidia’s journey navigating export restrictions underscores a pivotal moment in tech innovation. As the world transitions into an AI-driven future, Nvidia’s foresight and adaptation strategies may well determine the blueprint for other companies to follow, charting a path towards sustainable and legally compliant technological advancement.
Moreover, trade tensions between major economies remain a source of concern. Escalating disputes over tariffs, subsidies, and intellectual property rights could disrupt the flow of goods and lead to a slowdown in trade growth. The situation is further exacerbated by geopolitical uncertainties and the emergence of new trade barriers in certain regions, which add to the complexity of the global trading system.
